Restore a production sharepoint web farm to a new web farm - sam

If you have a production WSS 3.0 sharepoint environment and need to copy the production data into a test environment web farm (different web farm), it can be done using SQL backups and restore.
I am more comfortable using this method than using stsadm tool. This could also be helpful when your production system crashes and you need to quickly get a backup sharepoint farm up and running with the latest production data. Read this article !

Troubleshooting information WSS 3.0 Web Application

The troubleshooting information is organized by server roles. This information is further divided according to the logical areas of interest to the administrator when monitoring and troubleshooting the server role. Within each logical area of manageability, you will find reference and troubleshooting information relevant to each event logged by services or applications that are part of the server role. WSS 3.0 Web Application (with Event ID - Source - Message) This is preliminary documentation and subject to change. A Web application is comprised of an Internet Information Services (IIS) site that has a unique application pool. When you create a new Web application, you also create a new database and define the authentication method used to connect to the database. see this link : WSS 3.0 Web Application on TECHNET.

Deploying and Supporting Enterprise Search


Locating the appropriate information or people in an organization can be a difficult and time-consuming process. Without enterprise search services, employees at Microsoft might:
- Spend countless hours duplicating effort on multiple projects and teams.
- Be unaware of critical information produced by other employees.
- Make business or technical decisions with incomplete or inaccurate data.
- Require more technical support time and Helpdesk resources to resolve technical issues.
- Require additional managerial and human resources time to address job-related issues.
Microsoft IT reviewed the existing content that is indexed, existing content sources, business requirements, and technical requirements. Then, the team deployed shared enterprise search services for employees to find relevant, up-to-date information that is essential in performing their day-to-day job functions. The same enterprise search services put Microsoft employees in contact with peers all over the word, enabling them to collaborate more quickly and easily than ever before.
Microsoft IT combined the Enterprise Search feature in Office SharePoint Server 2007, SQL Server 2005, Windows Server 2003, custom-developed Web Parts, and integration with other line-of-business services and applications into its enterprise search services solution. Developing and deploying this solution provided the following benefits: read Deploying and Supporting Enterprise Search (P. Erol GIRAUDY).
